TP good kicker, capped flop
 

I'm more interested in in the hypothetical situation then this actual hand. I had very little on my opponent other then he seemed loose and willing to call down some of his hands. Now this is after only 1 lap, so basically I have very little info on him.

So my question is this. Do you generally call down when capped on the flop with top pair and good kicker HU, or release your hand. What stipulations do you have on your opponent to release or call down?

Unknown, on that board, with that action, I'm not 3-betting the flop. I'd call down because of the lack of a read. The hands that he would cold call with pre-flop connect with this flop in multiple ways.
